use UDP telemetry in NPS sim #1404

- get rid off all the datalink parsing "hacks" and use the actual parser from the firmware - this however means that you need to run link with the -udp option to use the NPS sim

Or we create another ground message to set all the NPS options and we can completely get rid of the nps settings "hack".... |

we are generating a SETTINGS_NAME macro in settings.h, so can init a table with that and search for the index of the settings you need. |

When I have some time I'll look into checking the settings names, but I guess that doesn't have to be the focus now... was working like this so far as well... Any ideas on how to best also start link for NPS sim sessions? Create a separate NPS session? |
and remove the old jsbsim option

When starting a simulator session with NPS, link should now be started automatically as well... @gautierhattenberger @dewagter any comments/objections? Otherwise I would like to merge this. |

I like the idea that a simulation is as similar to flight as possible: so no problem starting link (and being able to simulate link loss as well). Probably needs some mention on the mailing list as well. |
use UDP telemetry in NPS sim When launching a Simulator session from the Paparazzi Center, link should be automatically started as well. If sitl is started directly, one also needs to start link with the -udp option.
and use it in NPS sim session. Should fix #1404 with multiple vehicles: When simulating multiple vehicles with NPS (which now uses UDP), link needs to send the messages via broadcast so that every sim agent gets the messages.

So I guess we should find a nice way to also automatically start link with the simulation session (but only for type NPS).
